Today I read Bernice's blog and the comments. It seems that people are already talking about the November election and Joan Van Pelt running for Assembly. My opponent is the same Joan Van Pelt who represented a particular young man in a high profile case. This man spent 20 years in jail for a crime that he did not commit. I realize there is a small amount of people here in the city that are willing to support anyone other than me, but is this the kind of person that you want to represent you? Would you actually trust your life in her hands? I am shocked that she would even dream of running as a candidate. Perhaps it is understood that in running she will get a few votes from the Republican Party and maybe she will land a job in Trenton. However the fact is this - if I spent 20 years in jail for nothing there is no way in hell that me, my family or friends would ever vote for her.
By the way, you can rest assure that she is giving up her title as a New Democrat to become a Republican – and to think the New Democrats wonder why they are labeled “Christiecrats”.
Thank you Bernice for keeping us informed with your blog. Enjoy your day.
